Applique Quilt Revival September 26, 2008
I really enjoy this book. Well written and informative. Patterns are such that you can make as illustrated or edit the design by omission as desired.
Applique Quilt Revival: Updated Patterns from the 30's August 31, 2008
This is a fantastic find! A wonderful resource for applique patterns with many helpful tips along the way. As an intermediate quilter and beginner at applique, I'm finding projects galore here. It's presented in a clear, concise format with beautiful illustrations. The peony garden and tulip blocks are my absolute favorites followed closely by the fandango basket arrangement.
This would be a great gift for any quilter...so treat yourself or someone you know to some applique inspiration.

If applique is something you love to do, Ms. Mahoney's book, APPLIQUE QUILT REVIVAL, is one you should have in your library. All the quilts are sewn in fabric reminiscent of the 1930's. But if the `30's fabric is not your thing, just update the pattern by using a fabric that will go with your home.
Ms. Mahoney begins this book with a one-page introduction that talks about quilt patterns of the `30s and the colors of that era. This is followed by a 9-page section covering such quilting basics as cutting and squaring blocks, applique techniques and embroidery stitches. The final section before the patterns covers assembling and finishing the quilts.
Now the fun begins. 14 patterns for quilts and a table runner are given. Of course, you can always use one block to make a pillow or three to make a wall hanging. Each pattern gives the finished quilt and block size followed by a paragraph about the quilt.
The materials and cutting lists are clearly written. Applique and block assembly instructions include graphics to help show what the written instructions tell you. Assembly, finishing and quilting suggestions are the final items in the pattern. And, of course, don't forget the templates are included at full size.
Birds, flowers, rabbits, kitties, baskets, butterflies, horses, cowboys and houses make up the large variety of items to applique. There is something for every taste in this wonderful book.

Love this book! Glad to find some old patterns all in one book. I love the 30s materials and patterns. I plan on making all of them! I want more books like this.
